camphor

Camphor is a white, waxy crystal traditionally obtained from the wood of the camphor laurel of East Asia, and it passes straight from solid to vapour, which is how a block of it slowly vanishes from a drawer. Its cool, piercing, medicinal smell is a facet more than a material in fine perfume, the camphoraceous edge that runs through rosemary, lavandin and even the green side of tuberose.
